Monster Hunter: World arrives on PC on August 9, meaning you won't have to wait long to get in on the monster hunting action. You can already pre-order the game on Steam, if you want — doing so will net you the "Origin Armor Set" and "Fair Wind Charm." As can be noted on the Steam page, though, the game utilizes Denuvo Anti-tamper DRM. Be wary of that, if DRM-related concerns influence your pre-order decisions.

While it will lack any platform-specific bells and whistles, according to producer Ryozo Tsujimoto, that doesn't change the obvious fact that the better your hardware, the more likely it is you'll experience Monster Hunter at a much higher framerate than the game'sPS4 and Xbox One versions.

The minimum and recommended specs for the game are listed below, per Capcom's site:
